Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a flame-retardant hot-melt adhesive applied to the inner surface of a heat-shrinkable tube and to a heat-shrinkable tube coated with the same. It is. [0002] Conventionally, as a resin composition of a hot melt adhesive applied to the inner surface of a heat shrinkable tube, EVA,
EEA, modified polyolefin, polyamide, fluororesin and the like are used. Also, to impart tackiness to this, coumarone / indene resin, phenol / terpene resin,
Polybutene resin and the like are added as a tackifier.
On the other hand, bromine-based and chlorine-based flame retardants have been put to practical use, but bromine-based flame retardants having a large flame-retardant effect are often used. These include hexabromobenzene, decabromodiphenyl oxide, ethylenebistetrabromophthaluiside, tetrabromobisphenol A derivatives,
Octabromodiphenyl oxide and the like can be mentioned. Examples of the inorganic flame retardant include antimony trioxide, antimony pentoxide, magnesium hydroxide, ammonium polyphosphate and the like. It is well known that when a fine powder is dispersed in a polymer material, it exhibits thixotropy (thixotropic), and this property is widely applied to sealing materials, paints and the like. Examples of the fine powder added to express thixotropy include silica having an average particle size of several μm and water having a particle size of 1.2 μm or less as disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 54-37663 and Japanese Patent Publication No. 55-29107. Japanese alumina and the like are known. In addition, in the field where flame retardancy and waterproofness are required, combinations of the above substances with a flame retardant or a substance having flame retardancy have been studied. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 61-254686 is known. [0004] Since the hot-melt adhesive for the inner layer which has been made flame-retardant has a property of increasing its fluidity by heating for the purpose, its fluidity increases during combustion. , Which may cause dripping and spread of fire. On the other hand, the flame-retardant adhesive using thixotropic, the viscosity is apparently increased at the time of burning in a state where relatively no external force is applied, it is possible to prevent inconveniences such as dripping, but as a strong thixotropic effect, When the amount of the fine powder added is increased, the viscosity of the adhesive becomes too high even in the waterproofing process where high fluidity is required, so that there is a problem that sufficient filling cannot be performed and the waterproofness cannot be sufficiently exhibited. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, and provides a flame-retardant adhesive which exhibits good flowability when an external force is applied and which does not drip in a fire. The present invention provides a heat-shrinkable tube used for waterproofing of a coated wire harness, and is characterized by a bromine-based or chlorine-based with respect to 100 parts by weight of a resin composition having an MI (190 ° C) value of 30 to 220. 5 to 40 parts by weight of a flame retardant, 1 to 30 parts by weight of an inorganic flame retardant, and an average particle diameter of 0.01 μm to 40 μm
In a heat-shrinkable tube coated with a flame-retardant adhesive containing 0.1 to 20 parts by weight of a fine powder in the range of (1) to (4). The resin composition used in the present invention is obtained by polymerizing ethylene and vinyl acetate as main monomers and having a melting point in the range of 60 to 100 ° C. and a melting point in the range of 80 to 190 ° C. Examples include a certain polyester resin, or a polyamide resin having a melting point in the range of 50 to 90 ° C. Silica in the range of 0.01 to 40 μm is used as the fine powder. The chlorine content of chlorine-based flame retardants
The brominated flame retardant having a bromine content of 80% by weight or more is used as the brominated flame retardant. Further, as a tube material for applying the flame-retardant adhesive of the present invention to the inner surface, any one or a mixture of two of polyethylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and ethylene-ethyl acrylate copolymer is used. A resin obtained by adding 5 to 40 parts by weight of a chlorine-based or bromine-based flame retardant, 1 to 30 parts by weight of an inorganic flame retardant, an antioxidant, a processing aid, or the like to a base resin made of According to the present invention, 5 to 40 parts by weight of a brominated flame retardant and 1 to 30 parts by weight of an inorganic flame retardant are added to 100 parts by weight of a resin composition as a flame retardant. In this case, in order that the flame retardancy can be imparted with the smallest possible addition amount, the bromine-based flame retardant should have a bromine content of 80% by weight in the molecule.
As described above, in the case of a chlorine-based flame retardant, the chlorine content is preferably 65% by weight or more. As the inorganic flame retardant, antimony oxide, particularly antimony trioxide is preferred, and the flame retardancy of the hot melt adhesive is sufficiently enhanced. For example, a resin with lower MI,
For example, when added to a composition based on polyethylene, flame retardancy of V-0 level or higher can be achieved by selecting a resin, V-1 of UL-94 or higher. However, in the case of the hot melt adhesive, it is necessary to sufficiently flow between the tube and the coating by heating and to be filled without gaps. For this purpose, it is necessary that the viscosity be sufficiently low at high temperatures. However, the low viscosity at the high temperature causes a dripping flow at the time of combustion, causing the ignited adhesive to drop to the floor or the like, causing fire to spread. Therefore, it is required to have a contradictory property in which a sufficient flow occurs during the tube coating process and there is no dripping flow during the combustion. In order to impart this contradictory property to the adhesive, a phenomenon called thixotropy may be used.
This is a phenomenon in which the fluidity is high when an external force is applied, and the fluidity extremely decreases when the external force is removed. In order to impart this property to the resin, a powder having a fine particle size, for example, a fine powder having an average particle size in the range of 0.01 μm to 40 μm may be added. However, when the thixotropic effect is strongly realized, during normal shrinkage processing, which requires high fluidity,
In applications where the flowability of the adhesive is reduced and high waterproofness is required, a high balance is required in addition to its flame retardancy. All of the known materials have a poor balance between flame retardancy and waterproofness and the thixotropic effect, and cannot be applied to waterproof wire harnesses. Further, the material of the insulating layer of the electric wire constituting the wire harness is generally made of one or a mixture of two or more kinds mainly composed of PVC, polyethylene, and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer. In order to maintain proper waterproofness under a thermal cycle and under stress, polyethylene, P
0.2kg / VC, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer
It was found from various experiments because an adhesive force of at least cm was required. In FIG. 2, 10 is a flame-retardant adhesive, 11 is a reinforcing sheet of a flame-retardant adhesive, 12 is an adherend for an adhesion test, 13
Denotes a fixed-side chuck, and 14 denotes an ascending-side chuck. From the above, the particle size of the fine powder to be added needs to be in the range of 0.01 μm to 40 μm, and particularly preferably in the range of 0.01 μm to 4 μm. Although the material of the powder is not particularly limited, silica (SiO 2 ), which is considered to be physically inert, is preferable in consideration of the influence on the adhesiveness and the heat aging property. The flame-retardant adhesive and the tube may have an appropriate amount and type of antioxidant (for example, Irganox 1010 manufactured by Ciba-Geigy Co., Sumilizer BHT manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd.) according to the temperature environment used. ) May be added. EXAMPLES Tables 1 and 2 show sample examples, and the results of tests described later.
Is shown. Sample Examples 1 to 10 in Table 1 and Sample Examples 15 to 1 in Table 2
6 is an example, and sample examples 11 to 14 and 17 in Table 2 are comparative examples.
You. [Table 1] [Table 2] Each of the resin composition and the additives are used at a roll temperature of 1
After kneading for 15 minutes on a roll heated to 40 ° C., a sheet was formed by pressing. Flame retardancy evaluation was performed using a punched piece having a thickness of 2 mm, a length of 127 mm, and a width of 12.7 mm under the combustion test conditions specified in UL94. V-0: Do not burn for 10 seconds or more each time after flame contact twice. Flammable or flameless combustion should not reach the support clamp. Do not ignite absorbent cotton placed below with flaming drops. After the second flame contact, do not burn without flame for more than 30 seconds. V-1: After burning twice, do not burn by emitting flame for more than 30 seconds each time. Flammable or flameless combustion should not reach the support clamp. Do not ignite the absorbent cotton placed below with flaming drops. After the second flame contact, do not burn without flame for more than 60 seconds. V-2: After burning twice, do not burn by emitting flame for 30 seconds or more each time. Flammable or flameless combustion should not reach the support clamp. Flammable drops may ignite absorbent cotton underneath. After the second flame contact, do not burn without flame for more than 60 seconds. In order to evaluate the flame-retardant adhesive of the present invention, a flat and smooth surface sheet made of polyethylene, PCV and EVA resins was prepared, and an adhesive sheet (width 2) was formed on the sheet.
cm, thickness 2 mm), sandwich it with an iron plate coated with fluororesin, and heat it under pressure at 150 ° C for 10 minutes.
Thereafter, the sheet was cooled to room temperature, and the adhesive strength between each sheet and the adhesive sheet was measured by a tensile tester manufactured by Instron at a tensile speed of 50 mm / min. Measured value is 2cm sheet width
Therefore, it was divided by 2 cm, and was shown as a unit kg / cm. Using a heat-shrinkable tube coated with the flame-retardant adhesive of the present invention on the inner surface, a harness connection portion made of a PVC insulated wire was coated as shown in FIG. 1 and heat-shrinked. .
1 and 2 are PVC insulated wires, 1a and 2a are conductors of the wires, 3 is a conductor connecting portion, and 4 is a tube that has been heated and shrunk. After holding such a harness connection portion horizontally and applying a flame for 15 seconds, the fire can be spontaneously extinguished within 30 seconds, and the remaining four times can be spontaneously extinguished within 30 seconds even if repeated. Further, it was confirmed that the composition had excellent flame retardancy, in which no falling objects were generated regardless of the presence or absence of flame in any of the times. At the same time, as shown in FIG. 3, even after immersion in salt water for 24 hours, 50 V DC was directly applied and the leakage current was measured, showing a high waterproofness of 0.5 μA or less. Further, when 1 to 5 parts by weight of an antioxidant was added to the adhesive, the above waterproof property could be maintained even after standing at 125 ° C. for 40 days. As described above, according to the flame-retardant adhesive of the present invention, good flowability is exhibited when an external force is applied, and there is no dripping which causes fire spread in a fire. Therefore, it is particularly effective when used as an inner layer agent of a heat-shrinkable tube. Therefore, such a heat-shrinkable tube is extremely effective when used for applications requiring high flame retardancy and waterproofness, for example, harnesses for automobiles.
